MEP564 Fireye Programmer Module

Overview

The Fireye MEP564 is a microprocessor-based programmer module designed for use with the Fireye Modular MicroM flame safeguard control system. It provides the essential timing and sequencing logic required for the safe operation of commercial and industrial gas and oil-fired burners. This plug-in module determines the operational characteristics of the control system, including purge timing and ignition sequences, while providing advanced diagnostic capabilities through integrated LED indicators.

Features

• Plug-in design allows for easy installation and replacement within the MEC120 or MEC230 chassis.
• DIP switch configuration for selecting purge timing, Pilot Trial for Ignition (PTFI) timing, and operating modes.
• Integrated smart diagnostic LEDs indicate operating status and provide specific diagnostic codes during safety lockout.
• Run/Check switch facilitates testing and stabilization of the pilot flame.
• Non-recycle operation prevents automatic restarts after flame failure to ensure stringent safety protocols.
• Support for multiple flame scanners, including ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), and flame rods, depending on the selected amplifier.

Specifications

• Model Number: MEP564
• Supply Voltage: 120 VAC or 230 VAC (depending on chassis)
• Selectable Purge Timings: 7, 30, 60, and 240 seconds
• Pilot Trial for Ignition (PTFI): 5 or 10 seconds
• Pilot Stabilization Period: 8 seconds
• Main Trial for Ignition (MTFI): 10 seconds
• Operating Temperature: -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F (-40 degrees C to 60 degrees C)
• Shipping Weight: Approximately 0.30 lbs (0.14 kg)

Applications

The MEP564 is utilized in commercial and industrial combustion environments for managing the startup and monitoring of burners. It is specifically designed to work within the Fireye Modular MicroM framework, integrating with appropriate flame detectors and plug-in amplifiers to form a complete flame safeguard system. It is suitable for applications requiring precise control over purge times and non-recycle safety logic for gas or oil-fired equipment.
